Domaine de Grand Pré

Between 1980 and 1993 Grand Pré Winery changed hands several times. In 1993, Swiss businessman Hanspeter Stutz bought the property and began renovating buildings and replanting vineyards. It took over seven years to restore the winery and uncork the first bottle of wine. Now in its forth year, the new Domaine de Grand Pré has won prestigious national and international awards for its wines and continues to attract local clientele as well as visitors from the rest of Canada and international markets.
